    but... it was entirely about him being weaker than you... just a note.

    Otherwise, maybe you've inspired him to improve himself and throw out the tampons (joking about the last part)

    Cos I just beat mine at an arm wrestle, as Ive been lifting heavy and he is devastated . . . . . . . . . . oops

    If you think he was devastated before, I wonder how he feels about you making this post and including his picture? yikes.

    It shouldn't matter, although physiologically speaking, with a little work he should be able to out-do you easily.

    And all of this "men should be manly" junk is a bunch of sexist crap. If a man is naturally effeminate, there's nothing wrong with that. People should be whatever the *kitten* they want to be, regardless of gender stereotypes.

    This country has got to the point were men have become way to womanly. Men should be men. This metrosexual, weak girly man crap wouldnt play anywhere near me.

    ^THIS!

    Manly doesn't mean strong.."girly" doesn't mean weak...imo just saying.

    When talking about traditional manly manness, yes it does.

    I don't respect your opinion because you are wrong.

    My wife can beat me at thumb wrestling. I've given up on thumb curls as they don't seem to do crap and have admitted defeat in that area. I seem to do better at everything else involving strength.

    I'm very ashamed.

    Think about this guys- what if you were in an accident and were no longer physically strong and able. Would you be any less of a man? Would your spouse/partner love you any less? My husband is 6'5 and well over 200 pounds. He is as masculine as it gets and still would be if he were in a wheelchair and unable to move. To me, masculinity has *nothing* to do with physical strength. It has to do with how you treat a woman, your ethics, your willingness to sacrifice for your family and your ability to command the respect of your friends. That is how I judge a real man- not by how much he can bench. :wink:

    No, they shouldn't! Not if you don't want them to be! Men and women should be equals. That's exactly what I'd look for in a relationship if I wasn't still hung up over my ex.

    I am all about equality. Equality rules my world :drinker:

    Not sure if serious......testosterone <> estrogen......never will no matter how much you want it to be.
